Can’t Trust

BA Senior describes inspiration for his song Can't Trust 

 

 

 

                              By JAMAR WILLIAMS, 12

 

 

 

 

There is always somebody that you can’t trust; you can even have trust issues with somebody close to you.

 

I’ve had a lot of trust issues with plenty of people, from friends and even people I’ve known for just a little bit. Sometimes you can feel that a certain person can’t be trusted just by their actions. That’s why I decided to write and record my song “Can’t Trust”. 

 

The reason for making that song is because of two things, one is for people to relate and two is because I’ve experienced having a problem trusting people.

In the song I said, “a lot of people said this... a lot of people said that… people said that they was down with me but switched behind my back”. I was speaking on the people who told me that they will always be there for me but they never kept their word. I also mentioned that my mom showed me that I should never trust anybody but God. It takes a lot for me to trust someone.

 

Basically it’s hard to trust people when they show that they can’t be trusted.  I have trouble trusting girls too not just dudes because girls tell lies all the time. I can only trust you if show me that I can and you  be real with me.

 

Here's the song

Can’t Trust

 

A lot of people said this… a lot of people said that/

            People said that they was down with me but switched behind my back/

            A lot of people said this… a lot of people said that /

           

People said that they was down with me but switched behind my back man I can stand these people..

They say that they real/

But they lying in ya face don’t even care how you feel/

That’s why ion trust none of these dudes or trust none of these girls/

Like Drake stay down with my day ones that’s all I know/

See I done had a couple of patnas I with all the time/

I thought they was one hunnit and found out that they was lying/

I was dumb enough to believe everything they was saying/ Talm bout this and that and doing this and that but now I understand/

I realize  who was real and I realized who was fake/

The ones that be real with ya wont be all in yo face/

They can come over and chill with ya and do this and that/ But at the same time they talking down and talk behind yo back/

Even the people close to ya can switch up on ya/

It’s a cold, cold world fakes catching pneumonia 2x/

You cant trust everybody2x nobody cant be trusted.. People is hating over nothing/

See my mama put me on game…Never put my trust in nobody /

Always put my trust in God and you’ll start realizing/

A lot of people aint really who they really say they is/

I keep my circle small ion tell nobody my biz/

Most of you boys fake ion chill with you boys no way/

Ima still chase my dream  ion really care how you feel/

Ima tryna stack 100 mill/

Tell the labels to come holla at me cause youngn need a deal2x/

You cant trust everybody2x nobody cant be trusted.. People is hating over nothing/

 

A lot of people said this… a lot of people said that/

            People said that they was down with me but switched behind my back/

            A lot of people said this… a lot of people said that /

            People said that they was down with me but switched behind my back

           Man I cant trust nobody 3x I cant...
